*sleeps with the light on tonight*

We asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us which documentaries made them feel uneasy. Here are the extra-creepy results.

🚨 Warning: Some of this content is disturbing and graphic. 🚨

1. Abducted in Plain Sight (2017)

Top Knot Films

Where you can watch it: Netflix.

What it's about: There are so many twists and turns in this disturbing documentary, and there are so many wild details that you honestly won't believe, so I'm just going to keep it simple: This documentary is about a girl from Idaho who was kidnapped by her family's neighbor and best friend in the 1970s...twice.

Note: This was by far the most suggested documentary by our readers. One person even described it as "plain creepy and messed up from the very first second," so I think you really need to watch it now.

2. Mommy Dead and Dearest (2017)

HBO

Where you can watch it: HBO Go.

What it's about: This documentary does a deep dive into the murder of Dee Dee Blanchard, an apparently model parent who was taking care of her gravely ill child: "But after Dee Dee was killed, it turned out things weren’t as they appeared — and her daughter Gypsy had never been sick at all." This true story is so disturbing that Hulu made a TV show about it called The Act, which just won an Emmy.

Channel Five

He awaited trial for two years, was declared insane, and the charges against him were dropped. He ultimately became a mini celebrity in Japan, where he couldn't be legally detained, so he remains free to this day. This documentary follows those events.

17. Gladiator Days: Anatomy of A Prison Murder (2002)

youtube.com

Where you can watch it: YouTube.

What it's about: "Sounds like your average prison documentary, right? Well, I thought so too until about three minutes into the film. Because of the *extreme* graphic-ness (the documentary follows two brothers who murder a black man during a prison lockdown, which is caught on security cameras and is actually shown in the movie), I had trouble sleeping for roughly a week. The images are seared into my memory, and I can still hear the dialogue. I take pride in my love of all things demented and f*cked-up, but this movie terrified me and messed with my head!"

18. Jesus Camp (2006)
